3.4.7 Installing Optical Transceivers and Connecting Optical
Fibers
This section describes how to install optical transceivers on the SFP or SFP+ ports and
connect them to the ports of the peer device using optical fibers according to the network
plan.
Context
The USG supports both SFP and SFP+ optical modules. The optical modules at both ends are
the same, including the optical fiber type (single-mode or multi-mode), optical fiber connector
type (LC/PC, SC/PC, or FC/PC), and transmission rate. If different optical modules are used
at the two ends, the communication may fail.
Huawei optical modules are recommended. The optical modules from other vendors may
cause faults on the USG due to incompatibility.
Do not look into the optical interface of the optical module or the optical fiber connector
without eye protection.
Before connecting optical fiber cables, read the following precautions:

Before connecting optical ensure the following:

Procedure
Step 1 Insert an optical transceiver into the SFP or SFP+ port of the USG.
Step 2 Remove the dust cap from the optical transceiver.
Issue 08 (2017-06-30)
The labels at both ends of the cable are correct, clear, neat, and facing the same direction.
The cables and connectors are free of any damage or breakage and are connected
properly and reliably.
NOTICE
CAUTION
Do not overbend optical fibers, and the radius should not be shorter than 40 mm.
Do not bundle the optical fibers too tight. Otherwise, the transmission performance of
the optical fibers and the communication between devices might be adversely affected.
The optical module has been installed.
